10 Gallon horizontal, I'll probably move my group of ghosts up to this one.

Is that metal screen?

No, it is plastic mesh.

I was telling mike, when I run the screen into my frame, even if I run it semi loose it wants to bow so that a significant gap is produced. Maddening lol

Take your time with it, it takes practice to figure out how tight to hold the screen. too loose and the screen billows, too tight and the frame bows. Just wait until you try the green mesh.

Well here's what I got. First run. I think the next one I want the door to open down and not up, just personal preference. I pressed vermiculite into clear silicone over the aluminum screen so they could grip it. Sticks and screen in top and bottom

Thanks. I'll probably stick to these for most of my collection until I am able to start doing custom glass work again.

Tony are you a glazier? btw, doors look good!

lol I've read through that post. Now I wish I would have focused on building enclosures in glass art instead of wasting four years building stain glass windows. GRRRRRR.

This is a 2 door setup, side hinges for a 40 gallon breeder. Its 35''x17'' and the viv is 16'' deep this will be a communal viv for Deroplatys truncata.
